Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical (2022, IMDb: 7.2)

Bardo: False Chronicle Of A Handful Of Truths (2022, IMDb: 6.9)
From the Academy Award-winning director, Alejandro Iñárritu, comes this slightly wicked and comedic drama. The story follows a Mexican journalist and filmmaker who returns to his native country to face his identity, family relationships, and his past memories. In some ways, the story can be seen as a mimic of Iñárritu's own life, giving the movie its heartfelt and personal touch. This hidden gem is a great movie to self-reflect and start 2023 with a completely new mindset.
Memory (2022, IMDb: 5.7)
Now, before you scroll on by thinking this action flick is way too low-rated for your taste, this is definitely not a B-movie. Yes, Liam Neeson starring as an assassin-for-hire who finds himself the target after refusing a job sounds familiar. And yes, we have seen similar movies before. But fans are unanimous in their reviews saying Memory was better than expected and surprisingly good. In short, a great little action movie where Neeson does what he does best. Kickstart 2023 with a bang and enjoy this thrilling ride.
